monster's bride

Lu Zhizhi: "I haven't done it."

"You're so stubborn."

After Yang Li finished speaking, he unscrewed the lid of the paint bucket and poured a large amount of gasoline on the stall in front of his home. On the window near the corridor, he took out the lighter in his pocket, lit the flame and threw it in.

The flames suddenly burst out, and the gasoline that came in through the crack in the door ignited the plush carpet that Lu Zhizhi threw at the entrance. She took two steps back in horror, almost burning her trouser legs.

She immediately took off her coat on the coat rack to put out the fire, and took out her mobile phone to call the fire department.

Bai Ji walked to her side and pulled her behind him, "I'll open the door."

Lu Zhizhi suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "No."

She knew what he was going to do, "Bai Ji, if you were not a serial murderer or the murderer of those cases, you wouldn't do such a thing, right? What you said to me was not a lie, right?"

"I do not have."

He ignored the sharp roaring voice in his head and held her hand back, "I just want you to be safe. It doesn't matter if I die a few times."

Bai Ji wanted to go out and fight hand to hand to buy her time to escape.

At this moment, Shi Yu's voice suddenly came from the door, followed closely by the sound of someone being thrown down and fighting.

After a while, Shi Yu yelled, "Zhizhi? Are you in there? Lu Zhizhi!"

Lu Zhizhi's eyes lit up, "Here you are!"

She glanced at the terrifying cracks on Bai Ji's face again under the strong firelight, "Wait for me."

She ran to the living room, opened the cabinet under the TV, dug out the mask inside, ran back to Bai Ji, tiptoed, and put it on his face.

"Don't let him see you."

Bai Ji tilted his head, "I'll do it."

He didn't want her to touch this ugly face, so he put on a mask, and his shy and avoidant eyes finally calmed down.

"The entire entrance is on fire. I'm going to wet a towel and use it to open the door." Lu Zhizhi wanted to run to the bathroom again, but Bai Ji grabbed his wrist.

"If you can't get through it, I'll do it."

He walked into the fire burning with gasoline all over the floor, and directly put his white hands on the red-hot handle. The sound of sizzling like a barbecue hit Lu Zhizhi's ears.

She saw that his clothes were quickly ignited by the fire, starting to burn from the soles of his feet, and she shouted anxiously, "Bai Ji!"

He forced the door open with his hands. His clothes were dragged down to his feet to temporarily cover the fire. He reached out to her and said, "Come."

Lu Zhizhi immediately rushed over, and the door opened at this moment. Thick smoke poured out. She was pushed out of the door by the man, and Shi Yu caught him.

"Are you okay!?" He was frightened, hugging her shoulders tightly and away from the flames.

Bai Ji came out of the door with the fire in his body, and the palm of his hand that was stuck to the handle was forced open, the skin and flesh were torn, and the whole palm was bloody and bloody.

Lu Zhizhi felt distressed when he saw it. He held back his tears and pushed Shi Yu away. He ran to the end of the corridor and took out the fire extinguisher fixed on the wall. He turned on the switch and hurried back to spray Bai Ji's body.

Thick dust mist spread, and the fire on his body was quickly reduced and extinguished.

Lu Zhizhi threw away the fire extinguisher and ran into the white mist, dragging Bai Ji out.

The fire in the house continued to spread. Yang Li was lying on the side with his wrists cuffed. When he saw Bai Ji intact, he roared angrily, "Shi Yu! What are you doing Shi Yu! You clearly know what he is!"

"But Lu Zhizhi is innocent!" Shi Yu said in a deep voice, "You are too impulsive!"

"Is she innocent?" Yang Li's words left Shi Yu speechless for a moment.

Lu Zhizhi looked at Bai Ji's palm with all the skin and flesh torn off, and felt really distressed. This made her even more sad than when she found out there was something wrong with his face.

"I am fine."

Bai Ji hugged her, not letting her see the ugly palm, and said gently: "Don't look at it, I will soon become my original self."

The fire truck also arrived, and the flames were extinguished shortly after they exited the townhouse, leaving only billowing smoke billowing out the window.

The wound on Bai Ji's palm was accidentally seen by a passing rescue worker. When the rescuer found first aid supplies and wanted to deal with it, he only saw his white palms.

Bai Ji wore a mask and smiled, "You must have seen it wrong, I am not injured."

He was obviously covered in blood and his clothes were in tatters, but no wounds were found.

However, the firefighters found several bullet casings in the corridor and took them down with them.

The things were handed over to Shi Yu, a policeman, who put them into a plastic bag and glanced at Yang Li who was sitting in the car.

When the fire trucks left, the townhouse became quiet, with only Shi Yu's police car left.

He looked at Lu Zhizhi with complicated eyes, "It's still too late to stop and leave him now."

The hand on Lu Zhizhi's shoulder tightened instantly, and Bai Ji locked him in his arms as if he was afraid of someone taking away his beloved toy, "Officer Shi, I didn't kill anyone. I have been accompanying my daughter." friend."

Lu Zhizhi pursed his lips and looked a little tired, "Take Officer Yang back first. I won't argue with him about this matter. Let him go home and rest well."

"I'll give you time to think. You can call me at any time." Shi Yu opened the driver's door and turned to look at her, "I know you must have noticed something is wrong. You know Zhizhi, who is Bai Ji?" , what kind of changes our family has suffered."

The police car drove out of the apartment complex.

Lu Zhizhi returned to her house. The things she bought were placed outside in advance without any damage. The house was dark and most of them were burned down.

She didn't go in. Bai Ji apologized to her beside him, gently stroking her palm with his fingers, "Please stay at my house tonight."

"You lied to me."

After Lu Zhizhi calmed down, he turned around and took out his hand, looked up at him, "You are Bai Ji from Tong County, right?"

His face suddenly turned ugly, and his fox eyes, which were suppressed by his messy hair, shrank, "I"

At this time, Bai Ji, who was afraid of losing, didn't dare to lie to her like he just did. He hesitated.

And just these few seconds were enough for Lu Zhizhi to conclude that what he just said about being scratched on the face by Yang Li was also a lie, "You can take off the mask now."

"I'm ugly, it doesn't matter if I wear it." He tried to stop it.

"Bai Ji." Lu Zhizhi was extra determined this time, not wanting to be fooled at all, "Take it down."

She actually didn't know how much her words could improve Bai Ji's execution. When she saw that he finally struggled to take off the mask on his face, her tense nerves relaxed inexplicably.

At least, he could still listen to her words.

The striking gash did not heal along with the other wounds on his body.

From the wound that penetrated half of his face, you could see the fresh flesh and blood rolling out of it.

For a moment, her mind recalled the previous close contacts with Bai Ji and the inexplicable blood on her face.
